By the way, was there a general geographic location you had in mind for New Hope? I would like to study up on plants of that region.
Ok here is some of my own character connection proposals

@Jumbus Rowan Moore: You think that maybe Rowan would have tutored Ambrose? I mean, even though he has money... he still needs to get into a prestigious college even if it's by the skin of his teeth. Family obligation and all that, which I'm sure Rowan understands even though they're worlds apart in the semantics.


Yeah I like this. I can see Rowan seeing some sort of duty in tutoring someone from the Hightower family. Although, I do think Rowan would dislike a lot about Ambrose outside of that. Particularly the claim of needing to get into a prestigious college despite her knowing that Ambrose is not cut out for it.

Is that all good with you?

@myrkwise Toby Springer: For a connection, I can imagine Toby would also be strung along in some of Audrey's antics that involve Rowan. I can imagine they know each other from that, but hardly the best of friends despite their similarities. If that is within character for Toby of course. Let me know what you think

@Cassette Elias Jenson: I imagine a scenario where Rowan is out adventuring the woods and comes to her favorite spot only to find Elias there. That would be Rowan's first proper introduction to him. Despite having a good chat there, that was a couple of months ago and the two haven't really talked much outside of that.

Let me know what you think.

For all other character, I haven't forgotten about them. I like all characters here so far. Rowan is a pretty introverted character so I can imagine there is quite a few kids in town she doesn't know all that well.
Ok finally got back from work. I can make my responses now and go on the hunt for a character picture.

That formatting looks eerily familiar. I wonder why that is? ๐Ÿค” I'm kidding... I don't care. If anything, I'm flattered.

I should have credited my devious format thievery. But yeah it looks good, imitation being the highest form of flattery and all that.

...Which also leads me to you @Jumbus. Besides being fellow studing council members, there's some potentially interesting dynamics on how they're both facing pressure from a parent and the different ways they deal with it.

Yeah I noticed and I think it could lead to a really good connection. I can imagine something along the lines of them being good childhood friends but the emerging different approaches to their common issue has caused a rift in recent years. While they are still friends, the looming idea of what happens after school ends is always there.

Let me know what you think. I took a good amount of liberties with it, but I like the idea

@Jumbus Rowan Moore: Audrey could be her bad influence. I can see her feeling bad for the pressure she's under, and try to get her to unwind. Possibility backfiring when Rowan gets in some kind of trouble as a result.

Yeah I like this. I imagine Rowan being a reluctant participant in her adventures, constantly saying to authorities that she is keeping it from getting too out of hand. But in truth, she does enjoy it and Audrey can sense that without Rowan displaying it outwardly.

Here's my character sheet. Still has appearance stuff to go on account of me needing to find a picture. But I am happy with the rest.



I'll throw my interest hat in the ring





Captain Kura's spy cam switches over to Slink's room, only to show a black screen. It had been like that for a week or so with him making renovations to his room. But the space rodent hadn't really blacked out the cam, Kura's discerning eye could pick up traces of discoloration and dust on the surface. It was Slink's newest addition of a giant black cube in the middle of his quarters.

An arm popped into the view then half the rodents body as he passed by, crawling like a gecko across the surface. The sheer proximity of Slink to the camera's lens made it evident that there couldn't be much more than the rodent's width between the cube and the wall. Certainly the Saiyan warrior would have no dream of accessing the room without destroying something. Just what the hell was he doing in there?




Slink couldn't be more at home with his new addition. No one would be able to reach him in here. Not even the crew. It not necessarily because he didn't trust the crew, which to be sure he doesn't trust them. He just felt at home in enclosed spaces, being out in the open brought nothing but unnecessary stress. Plus his new metallic labyrinth of choking crawl space had everything. A bedroll to sleep on, a surface to eat on, and a soundproof box for tests. On weekends, he does all three things in the same place. That is a treat.

"Rise and shine, crew. Get your asses to the Mission Deck in ten, gotta brief everyone before we touch down."

Captain pays bills, I should make pace. Take the fastest route.

Slink crawled along the cube and up top to the place where the cube's vent meet the ship's. As if it were an everyday occurrence, which is was, he popped the grate of and slipped into the ship's ductwork.




From the ceiling of the mission deck, the rodent descended down. Head first, then body with the tail supporting the weight as he inched closer to the set. And finally, a short drop into his seat.
When Discord?
Thinking about it, yea. Doing some edits might be nice. I haven't read the sheet entirely until now oops, but it was something that crossed my mind when I was skimming through what positions had been filled when I was finishing up the sheet. Looking at equipment, abilities, etc, I am more than willing to see about changing the skills up slightly, maybe playing more into the gunner/assassin type role if it becomes more of an issue.

Otherwise, Aftershot is moved over as he is.


I'm usually a bit of a stickler about these things. But I don't see it as much of an issue either. Sure they both have invisibility cloaks. But it seems as though Aftershot's is a bit more combat oriented with a short duration but I assume more control. Where as the intent for Slink's is that it has a good duration but has pretty rough switching times which means its quite hard to use in a combat scenario. Plus I highly doubt Aftershot will be crawling around in vents.

So yeah, I think it should be fine from a concept. But will have to wait to see how it plays out
Just finished reading the rest of the characters. I think there will be some interesting dynamics for sure.

Added in a couple more details in the equipment department. Mainly wall and ceiling climbing and a jetpack that doesn't pass safety regulations.
